The famous annual 17th Street High Heel Race of Washington featuring Halloween drag queens from the heart of the DC gay community. Recorded by Metro Weekly magazine in the Dupont Circle area of the Northwest quadrant of the District of Colubmia on October 26, 2008, 7:45pm-9:15pm. Includes impersonations of Sarah Palin, Michelle Obama, Joe the Plumber, Cher, the Wizard of Oz, the Ambiguously Gay Duo, Victoria’s Secret models, Cruella de Ville, the Texas polygamous Mormon ranch mothers, and the Washington Monument.
In fashion, the economy tends to dictate the height of high heel shoes. Lucky Magazine’s Laurel Pinson showed Maggie Rodriguez the hottest heels for Fall.
